DH. Drink driving. Facebook. This one has it all!

[monkeyfacegrace]

Im fucking LIVID with DH.

He went out for a meal last night. Came home at 11pm, and I got hit by the smell of beer straight away.

He said initally he had 4 pints with a big meal over the evening, today he has changed that to 3 pints.

Im literally fucking steaming. Im no goody goody, I drink like a fish, but Id NEVER consider getting behind a wheel.

What makes it worse is that it was a performance car he was driving, and he depends on his license for his job.

So, as well as possibly killing himself and others, he also risked his job, his home, everything. He had to come home rurally too, and the chances of hitting a deer or another animal at that time was increased. Not to mention teenagers hanging around during summer holidays.

Can you tell Im mad?

Anyway, I just let rip, publically, on facebook. He still doesnt think he has done much wrong and that Im over reacting. So Ive blasted him publically. I hope his boss reads it and I hope he is FUCKING MORTIFIED.

Its almost a deal breaker for me.

Anyway, Im wondering whether Ive made myself look like a twat for using facebook to shame him. Should I remove it?

Can't believe there are people picking the OP apart for having two lambrusco's on one night years ago (she said it was pre-kids). I mean seriously, saying 'you must not!' to someone we know is anti-drink-driving already or they wouldn't have posted this thread. How is that remotely supportive of your fellow MNer?

Hope you feel better tomorrow OP.

Monkey - I hope that you come down from your manic phase soon, and I hope that your DH realises how he has contributed to it by his behaviour and subsequent refusal to accept how wrong it was. I also hope that it triggers true remorse in him and that he decides to stick to his promise never to do it again this time. While him moving out temporarily might seem extreme, sounds like you do need the cooling off space away from him - so best he goes for a while - do you have any sort of idea how long it might be or is that all up in the air just now?

and for you - bad situation. Hope it resolves soon.

Monkey as you mentioned the drink driving is something that is being condoned by your DHs boss and workforce, I think you would be well within your rights to wait until the next office do (it may even need to wait until Christmas) and mention it to the police. They would be down there like a shot. That's probably going to be the best way of catching them red handed.

Disgusting behaviour by a boss, they should be encouraging their staff to behave legally not encouraging or turning a blind eye to drink driving.

Hope thinks work through for you. Sounds like you've been through a tough weekend.

Oh Monkey I am so sorry to hear that this situation has brought on a manic episode. Look after yourself in any way you can whilst you recover.

Take care

It's sad that you can't get support under AIBU but have to go elsewhere and write all over your feelings again!

OP you are doing great, be strong, do your best to remove any negativity so that you can think straight again!
